As my readers who follow Scottish affairs will of course have realised, the poster above refers to the forthcoming referendum, in which voters will be asked "do you want Scotland to be an independent country?"
Now this blog aims for political balance (Gail raises eyebrows here) so I have been looking for a NO, or rather a BETTER TOGETHER poster in someone's front window so I can pose beside that too.
I have searched far and wide, but there are none to be seen.
So I asked Gail, do we conclude from this that everybody in Scotland, apart from her, is going to vote YES?
Then I asked why she does not put a BETTER TOGETHER poster in our window.
And Gail said something about fearing an expensive bill from the glazier…
Hmmm Bertie, now we just needs to get our stuffs together over here and get Texas to be it's own country again, hee hee!
ReplyDeleteMomma knows some Scots over here in Texas (she met the Garritys in California, then we moved back to Texas, then they moved to Texas).... she says she knows they would vote YES...
ReplyDeleteMaybe the silent majority are hiding behind their net curtains ?

Oh Dear Bertie we have read about that. We wondered what the feeling was of the people. Sometimes it is best just to sit back and observe.
ReplyDeleteHugs madi your bfff
Our province may try and do the same thing. We are interested to see how people vote.
ReplyDeleteWell, you know the saying "Silence is Golden". Now with the peeps being Scots by blood they say "YES"

Crikey Bertie .... my Mum's of Scottish background. She reckons you'd have a hard time finding a No sign and she sure wouldn't be game to display one in her window if she lived over there. You'd probably get every window in your house rocked!!
ReplyDeleteHmmm. It all sounds a bit complicated. Think we'll google it!!
ReplyDeleteIt's good to be a dog...I don't have to worry about such things. I only worry about dinner time and making sure I'm in the car next time it goes.

Politics always fascinate us and we can't wait to hear how it all turns out. Hopefully YES for you!
ReplyDeleteIf Scotland becomes its own country, will the United Kingdom have to change its name? And how will Border Collies feel if their namesake border becomes an international border?
